Puig is accused of making false allegations against a man who is currently in prison, according to a Friday report from the L.A. Times.

Puig, a 22-year-old who made his MLB debut last month after defecting from Cuba in 2012, testified in a human trafficking trial in 2010 that saw a man from Cuba, Miguel Angel Corbacho Daudinot, receive a seven-year prison sentence.
